    You’re never too old to install the entire system by hand.

    Wow, I hope I have his energy when I’m his age…. Full Signature Solar system by hand. Pretty sad his building inspectors required him to go 16” centers on his racking, they obviously have no idea how that ruins his bi-facial recovery, typical politician idiots. Very empowering video..... NOTE...
